“Robert was great with my dogs. They had a nice place to sleep and play. I think they thought they were on vacation. He was very thoughtful about making the dogs feel at home. Will definitely bring them back again!”
“This is the second time we use Brittany to watch our pup and she’s such a joy! It really feels like our pup is going on vacation. Brittany sends regular updates and photos and our pup clearly gets a ton of attention and exercise. Would highly recommend!”
“Brandi was amazing! Our dogs stayed with her for a week and were very well taken care of. She kept us updated with pictures and a check in each day. In every picture, our dogs looked so happy! Brandi handled our dog’s medication and their little quirks with ease. Drop off and pick up were easy. She really went above and beyond!”
“Lilly seemed to have a great time. She was in great spirits when we picked her up, and was obviously tired that night from all the attention she received from Kim and her family.”
“We are so grateful for Chaun for taking such great care of our Gus over Christmas! We got regular updates that were thoughtful and fun, and he seemed to have a blast with her own pups (and kitty). He came home tired and happy- thank you again for your care, Chaun!”
“I had the pleasure of leaving my Australian Shepherd in Steve’s care for five days, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. He was absolutely awesome—someone who truly understands my dog’s needs and personality. It’s rare to find someone I completely trust with my pup, but he’s one of those few people. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter!”
“Annika and John are wonderful! They took great care of my anxious and needy pup for a week and kept me in the loop with daily photos and updates which I really appreciated. They took note of all my dog’s needs and asked questions, I could tell they really cared. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with them and will happily rebook!”
“Nicole did a great job with our little guy. You could tell he was well loved. She sent a couple pictures a day of him playing, cuddling, or going for walks. We hope to take our dog back to her next time!”
“Gage is really nice and responsive and he took a great care of Tater tot. We got regular updates and pictures and was easy to communicate with. I highly recommend! Will rebook again in future.”
“I boarded my dog Hamilton for the first time with Emily and he did so well! He came home happy and exhausted and I’m so grateful. I was nervous as he is a very shy boy and I felt like he was in really good hands! Would highly recommend!”
“Dawn did a great job of making Maggie a part of her family. Maggie is a velcro dog and I was concerned about leaving her for an extended time. We have only left her occasionally for about four hours at a time. Maggie found a home away from home. She loved playing with Dawn's dogs and meeting Dawn's daughters. Dawn was great about sending photos and videos daily so I knew Maggie was in a good place. Thank you Dawn for taking such good care of Maggie!”
“I really enjoyed having Ziggy an Samson stay with Jay, They came back so positive an calm, so I know he had spent a lot of time with them which made me so happy.. Also getting pictures of them really hit home an made my trip so easy just to know they were happy an content.. I will always pick Jay to watch my babies, he did such an outstanding job!! I recommend that you to book with him, your dog will love it!! Thanks again Jay!!”
“Jamie took super good care to Morty, she loves dog and enjoy playing with them. Although her place is 30 mins away from my home. I will still choose her again to take care our baby when we are out of town.”
About: I specialize in caring for very small, senior, "sensitive" dogs who need 1:1 love and attention. My late dog, Smidgey (Rat Terrier mix rescue who lived to be 15+ years old -- the "+" is because the shelter didn't know how old she was when she was rescued) taught me compassion, patience, and how to find humor and joy in caring for these Silver Muzzled cuties. I work from home so I have time to care for your Sugar-faced furry friend on weekdays. I do occasionally need to run errands - though I am never away from home for more than 2 hours at a time. I'm also available for boarding on weekends. I specialize in older, very small, sensitive dogs that need extra TLC. My focus is on giving senior, small dogs a warm, safe environment to rest and relax. My work is primarily on the computer, so having a wise companion accompany me during my day would enhance my life as much as theirs. I love to break up my workday with frequent short walks with these Vintage Pups.
“I needed a great sitter for my 6 month old puppy on short notice and Shadie met with us right away. I wanted my puppy to play with other dogs and Shadie has the perfect ones for that. She took wonderful care of Onyx for Five days. Shadie is very experienced with dogs and I’m so glad she is doing this work. I definitely recommend her for watching over your puppy or dog. I will seek her out again for Onyx’s next stay. Thank you Shadie for Keeping Onyx safe and entertained and for my peace of mind.”
“Misty took such good care of my dog while I was out of town! Frequent updates and very responsive. She obviously knows dogs well and mine came home healthy and very happy! Would definitely book again.”

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Vernonia can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Vernonia home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Vernonia.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Vernonia. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Vernonia sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
